Default Top speed question

I know that the top speed on a US Spec A4 (2.0T) is 130 mph, but what is the top speed with the limiter removed (via a chip)? I drive on the autobahn everyday and the german spec Audi's fly by me. Thanks.

I don't remember the exact number but one of the major car magazines (I believe it was Top Gear) showed the top speed for the 2.0T without the limiter is somewhere in the 150's.

A couple of years ago I took my friend's A4 to a dried lake bed in California and we opened it up. We got to 135mph and I felt like we could have pushed her more. We chickened out a bit...we weren't exactly on asphalt.

Well, that's the stock speed limiter unless the car is tuned.
